About Us

What is it about Northern Ontario that's so special? Well, we would say it's the inspiring people who live here! That's part of what sparked the starting of this small, humble magazine. We're here to tell your stories and the share in the accomplishments of works completed and in progress. We're here to showcase what Northern Ontario has to offer!

The How, What & When

We'll be delivering this small production via digital platform for the first year of service. Once we feel we're known by Northern Ontario residents, we'll begin branching out to a four-sided print with the same kind of features about the artists of Ontario.

What we'll be presenting? Articles about our featured subjects! They could be tips and tricks, interviews, general thoughts, actual experiences, funny stories, fiction or non-fiction, features about upcoming events, research, history, etc.
